About the book
A very well-written guide to making and furnishing doll's houses (including patterns to make the dollhouse family). Ms Dodge starts with general instructions and then gets down to the nitty-gritty - the furniture and accessories. She offers patterns for Victorian, Tudor, and Modern (1970-ish) wooden furnishings, and lots of tips on repurposing old jewelry, beads, tin cans etc into attractive tiny dollhouse objects.
